“Disney is unique in its ability to create a phenomenon in one region and expand the excitement to other parts of the world,”
The name nuiMOs is a blend of the Japanese words nuigurumi, meaning plush and moderu meaning model. Disney nuiMOs are meant to be an extension of one’s self with the flexibility to change their looks to suit one’s personality and taste. Disney nuiMOs are flexible and can do a wide variety of poses. Adding along their pocket-sized and portable characteristics, they are the perfect companions and models.
To help celebrate the launch, celebrity stylist Maeve Reilly created five signature Disney nuiMOs looks for Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse by mixing and matching clothing and accessories from the new lines to inspire fans to create their own. Maeve’s Disney nuiMOs style creations are: Streetwear: Tokyo vs LA street style, Loungewear, Day to Night and a Day at Disney Parks.
“It was so much fun to style and create these looks for Disney nuiMOs plush for their big global reveal,” says Maeve Reilly. “I have a huge love for accessorizing and think attention to detail is critical to creating the perfect outfit for any occasion whether that’s heading to a lunch or watching a movie on the couch. These little plush are perfect to personalize and express your own sense of style.”
